What to focus on for AQA Physics
AQA A-Level Physics requires strong understanding of particle physics, waves, mechanics, electricity and fields. Revision should prioritise these core areas alongside the optional units.
—Particle Physics
—Mechanics and Materials
—Electricity
—Nuclear Physics
Common mistake: units and precision
Physics marks are often lost on units, significant figures and multi-step calculations. Log these slips to ensure they don't repeat in the real exam.
